These seem to be made in South Africa and used on a special mine sweeper vehicle. It says "Sand Trail" (as a brand) and are 450/80/R20. The company claims the machine can go 50, so I don't see speed an issue. Obviously they won't tear up roads as bad as more load concentrating tires...

Thanks grendel. To make a proper fit, while things appear to be consistent, I think we should have both parts of the rim to make sure that hub A fits with ring A. That would require shipping both parts two ways and get rather costly (to Wisconsin). A mill is probably what it will end up on, a...

Tom, Safety is always my goal. I understand about your's coming apart on the highway and why that would be a real problem, especially if it occurred with a 5 ton (or a deuce). I can't see any reason this is not a quality modification using parts intended for the use (even if in a slightly...

Tom, Thanks for your reply. There is a considerable difference in what I'm doing and the days of welding pipe on an old VW wheel. That's why I included photo's, so it's clear I'm using components that are made for exactly the purpose I'm using them for. Both donor parts are wheels for...
